The guide lamps light
according to song channel
recorded to Tracks 1 and 2
and the chord data in the
song (when such data is
included). Normally, you can
leave the AUTO SET CH
function set to ON, and the
song channel will automati-
cally be set. If the results
aren't satisfactory, you'll
need to match the Channel
Setting “TRK1 CH” and
“TRK2 CH” parameters to
the appropriate right- and
left-hand parts.
n

This data specifies a certain
location in the song data. In
the included “Music Software

numbers (1, 2, etc.) in the
score.
n
Track 1 or Tracks 1 & 2 are
automatically selected for
practicing when calling the
practice function — as long
as you haven’t muted the
track to be practiced.
n
The key guide lamps some-
times light an octave or two
lower/higher than the actual
pitch. Any notes outside of
the 88-key range cannot be
indicated by the key guide
lamps.

If the right- and left-hand
parts recorded to the song
data have not been properly
separated, the practice func-
tions may not work as
